New EASA LVO RVRs

So the new Fail Operational/Passive concept doesn't seem that different to the old CAT 3B/A. The Minimums for fail passive are now 175m vs the old 200m. But there doesn't seem to be any indication of the various RVR requirements for the 3 runway segments, the new table is not like the old one.

There is mass confusion in my airline regarding this as the new table only mentions one RVR, which we all agree is required for the touchdown RVR, but what about the mid point and stop end?

We now have three opinions going around my airline regarding the midpoint and stop end RVRs:
1) still the same as before (i.e. 125 or 75 with auto roll out)
2) doesn't matter anymore (is never relevant)
3) must be the same as touch down RVR

Can anyone point to a document that has an answer? I tend to favor number 1, but that's only based on what I consider logical.
